Prerequisites

  • You must be a Global Admin in Kadence


What Are Starred Colleagues?

Starred Colleagues allows users to “star” other colleagues in Kadence. When a user stars someone, they can receive the following information and notifications:

  • A schedule chart showing their starred colleagues’ bookings for the current and upcoming weeks

  • Booking notifications when a starred colleague books, cancels, or checks in

  • A weekly summary email sent every Friday showing which starred colleagues have booked for the following week

Notification preferences for Starred Colleagues can be managed by each user individually in their profile settings. For more details, see the article on enabling or disabling notifications.


Manage Starred Colleague Settings

Global Admins can control how the Starred Colleagues feature behaves across the company.

To edit Starred Colleague settings:

  • Log in to Kadence

  • Click Settings in the lower left-hand corner

  • Click Company from the top menu

  • Scroll down to the Starred colleagues section

    Starred colleague settings

From here, you can configure the following options:

  • Disable Starred Colleagues entirely across the organization

  • Require users to send star requests, which must be accepted before someone is starred

  • Allow users to star anyone without approval

You can also choose whether users are allowed to override these settings at an individual level by enabling or disabling the option that allows personal control.


How These Settings Affect Users

  • If Starred Colleagues is disabled, users will not be able to star colleagues or receive related notifications

  • If star requests are required, both users must agree before the connection is created

  • If unrestricted starring is enabled, users can freely star colleagues without approval

  • If individual overrides are allowed, users can adjust their own Starred Colleague preferences regardless of the company-wide default

For user-level controls and notification preferences, direct employees to their profile settings or the notifications help article.
